Caskers Offers Up Craft Spirits, & We Offer Up A Booze Discount (TGIF!)

Aside from all the spirit labels that we know by heart (and sadly, by association with particularly massive hangovers), there's an entire world of independent craft distilleries worth exploring. And, thankfully, new membership site Caskers has made it a bit easier to track down these distilled gems.

While the site currently is invite only, the benefits of getting in on this cocktail party are tenfold. Offering up selections from craft distilleries around the country, members have access to products that they otherwise may not. In addition, you'll be able to enjoy some of the finest spirits beyond just what the liqueur store shelves can carry.

Can't wait for happy hour? Not a problem. Caskers has also offered up an exclusive treat for R29 readers. Simply register for your own account on Caskers using the code REFINERY29, and once you're ready to scoop up your own craft spirits to get the party started, enter the code REFINERY29 at checkout to score 10% off your entire purchase. Sign up now — it's 5 o'clock somewhere.
